    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Martensitic transformation; phase-field method; polycrystal; stress-effects; microactuator; finite-element simulations.;

    Abstract : In this thesis two kinds of phase change i.e., solid state phase transformation in steels and solid-to-liquid phase transformation in paraffin, have been modeled and numerically simulated. READ MORE

  4. 2. Computational modeling of oxygen-assisted fracture in nickel-based superalloys

    Author : Kim Louisa Auth; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Stress-assisted diffusion; Intergranular fracture; Crack growth rate; Crystal plasticity; Moving boundary condition.; Crack propagation; Grain boundaries; Polycrystal;

    Abstract : Nickel-based superalloys are a commonly used material in applications where high strength is required at high temperatures. A typical such example is jet engines and, in the case of polycrystalline nickel-based superalloys, components like turbine disks. READ MORE

  5. 3. On the Chemical Romance Between Gas and Surface, and how to Illuminate it

    Author : Sebastian Pfaff; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; planar laser-induced fluorescence; surface optical reflectance; model catalysis; palladium; polycrystal; CO oxidation; heterogeneous catalysis; Fysicumarkivet A:2022:Pfaff;

    Abstract : An increasing number of catalysis experiments are conducted at higher pressures to bridge the pressure gap. This means that we need to measure not only the sample surface but also the gas phase around the sample with spatial resolution. READ MORE

  6. 4. Efficient crystal plasticity simulations of microstructure evolution

    Author : Ylva Mellbin; Hållfasthetslära; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : One of the common tools for studying the deformation behavior of the microstructure in polycrystalline materials is crystal plasticity models. These are used to describe texture evolution and hardening due to crystallographic slip. READ MORE

  7. 5. Computational modeling of polycrystals using gradient crystal plasticity

    Author : Mikkel Grymer; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; parallel algorithms; crystal plasticity; dual mixed finite element method; gradient hardening; grain modeling;

    Abstract : This thesis treats the modeling of grain size dependence inmicrostructure models of metals. It is shown how gradient hardening, in a thermodynamically consistent fashion, can be included into a crystal plasticity model, which is used as the constitutive model in each grain of the polycrystal.
